3. Latest Updates: Contains announcements from LiveWhale and New Media.
4. Libraries: Each link – Images, Files, Tags and Widgets – leads to libraries of content where you can upload, edit, share and place in your site.
5. Search: Typing in this field and clicking the arrow will display content in your site containing your text.
